Deuce Ride as usual!

This event took place on October 15th but I'm just now getting around to posting about it! Slacker I know! So this was the first night that our families got to meet. My family met Ron's Grandparents Jim and his girlfriend Donna, needless to say there wasn't a quiet mouth in the garage at my moms. Everyone was talking and getting to know one another. My best friend Brittney stopped by as well to join the party! She was the life of the party as usual!!

Merriman/Ladd Wedding

I love you...so much!

Saturday we had the Merriman/Ladd Wedding, the wedding was gorgeous and we had a lot of fun. Ron, along with TJ, were ushers so they thought they had pretty important jobs. In all reality they did. TJ was so nervous about seating people, Ron on the other hand thought he was a professional....

Sunday we just relaxed and cleaned out our upstairs storage unit and put stuff down into the garage. We enjoyed our relaxing day.

This weekend we have "family game night" with everyone, so that will be fun, plus Ron's grandpa and his girlfriend are hopefully coming. Which will make it a lot of fun for our families to finally meet.

4 Dinners One Bag Night #1

So Ron and I decided that we were going to try the 4 dinners one bag, they call it 5 dinners one bag, but since Friday Ron will be out of town we didnt worry about Fridays dinner. It actually at the grocery store saved us a lot of money. I walked out with dinner for all week and a couple extra things for about 28 dollars. Not bad...
So this was the first recipe you can find it here Quick Mushroom Pork Steaks... it was really good!!

Sick Sick Weekend


Ron and I both came down with something, me worse than him, but it was not enjoyable. It was hard to hold any food down and when you did it was only for a couple minutes. :-( We did have a very good time with Hernan at his house warming party, his house is very nice. We enjoyed going over there.
At Hernans being silly :-)

The Soups all tucked in sleeping <3

Snoopy Snow Cones....

As we all know I have a slight obsession with anything Peanuts Gang. This comes from my mother raising me on Charlie Brown and Snoopy. Our little Marcie is named after Marcie the one always going around calling Peppermint Patty "Sir"

Well so I have to apologize to my mother, I recently took my niece to Toys r Us and found that they are re-selling the peanuts snow cone makers. I always just thought that they were super easy, mainly because I just sat and waited for the ice to come down and scoop it out with the little shovel...boy oh boy was I totally wrong! Its a lot of hard work!

This was a major mistake on buying, but its nice to have again! I missed this silly thing.

On the other hand I have just been amazed at how fast Marcie is growing! Shes becoming quite the cute little dog, that I knew she would always be! I cant wait to see how she turns out as an adult dog.
This is the way I found her when I was in the shower this morning...toy and all...

This is her way to cute adorable picture....

I cant wait for our professional pictures that we are getting done October 25th! We get them in a little over a month! I cant wait! Plus thats the start of our vacation! YAY!

That Fun Place

So after leaving Big Lots last night I told Ron that I was a master put putt player. So he of course challenged me to a game at That Fun Place in greenfield. We had a blast. Ended up in a tie 24-24. Right on par, I think. Pictures to come soon...

Fun Filled, Accident Packed Weekend.....

Ron and Marcie asleep on the couch Sunday morning

The nice parting gift the ER sent me home with.

Lovely Korean Dinner with Ada

This weekend was a fun filled, accident packed weekend.

Friday, Ron had to work. So Brittney came over and kept me company while I made soup, we both indulged in the soup before Ron got home then had some more when he got there! Its soo good and I think Im going to make it again tonight!! Yummy!

Saturday Morning, Marcie and I woke up fairly early, so we decided it was a good idea to wake Ron up so that he could enjoy the whole day with us instead of sleeping the day away, well Ron and I play this game called the "heel game" well the heel game finally ended in a trip to the ER. Ron bruised my toe really bad to the point where I couldnt put weight on it. 2 hours in the ER later, we found out it was just a bruised bone and that it would take some time to heal. They put me in a pretty blue boot and I have to wear it until my pain starts to subside.

Sunday was a pretty relaxed day, nothing to much to report, Ron and marcie decided they were going to be lazy on the couch which always makes for good photo opps. I had dinner with Ada and watched the Colts game.

This week we have a normal week ahead of us. Busy but good! Rons new Xbox comes out today so I figured I will be all alone most of the week, I will need ot find some good movies to watch on netflix. :-(

The adventures of our little family continue.....

So I got these pretty red roses

So he could get this pretty little TV

My two favorite people ever!!

Love this little girl...

So the story of our little family continues we recently purchased a new TV, Ron's baby, and for doing so I got pretty little red roses! Marcie is working very well with potty training, we have accidents from time to time, but they aren't as often as they were. So that's a plus.

I get to have Zoe this Saturday, Ron and I are very excited for this because I was told that I wasn't going to be allowed to have either one of them because of Stephens personal vendetta with me. Sorry that I have proven my life to be worth something and yours isn't and your kids much rather spend time with me than you....anyway...

Last night we went to get sushi at Anderson Casino we were bound and determined to win enough money to just go in and pay off our TV, well lets just say we didn't do as well as what we did last time, but we still did ok. We walked out pretty close to even. We enjoy the casino, especially Anderson. Its close to home and fun to go to!

Still working with Marcie♥




Having Marcie has become a very stressful task! She has her ups and downs of being a good and a bad girl. Im sure in the end it will all work out but for now we are just keeping on to her about going outside. We incorporated treats in with going potty every time she goes out, and she seems to be getting the hint. We haven't had an accident in 24 hours. (Knock on wood) We both are still so obsessed with her, and everything revolves around her. Thats for sure.
Tonight she has a play date with her friends, Mazie and Ellie. Mazie loves her, but Ellie on the other hand cant stand her.

Meet Miss Marcie Niece

We finally both agreed to get a puppy! Therefore we now have Miss Marcie...

Asleep on the bed on our pillows....

She is 12 weeks old today, shes a little bundle of energy and is defiantly keeping us on our toes. Shes only had a handful of accidents so far, but shes only been our puppy for 3 days! Im sure its going to be a long road. But we both just adore her and have so much fun playing with her! She gets so excited when we finally get her out of her cage or Ron goes to pick her up, its so adorable! We are looking forward to many years with Miss Marcie, we love her so much!

Melting Pot Surprise Dinner

Ron surprised me this weekend with a very nice dinner at the Melting Pot on the North Side. I enjoyed it very much! We had a wonderful time, and I was even greeted at the table with a red rose. Im so lucky to have such a wonderful boyfriend. I love him so much!

Me and Ron at dinner
Our Yummy dinner...I didnt take a pic of the cheese though and the chocolate, that was by far my favorite part!!

Other than the surprise dinner, Friday I went shopping with my sister in law, and had a wonderful time as usual. Then we ended up going to Mi Casa with her and my brother...we enjoyed our time out with them, since its not very often that we get to go out with them without the kids....here are some pictures from the evening....

Our pitcher-o-margarita....lol

She was taking one for the team...

We had a really fun and busy weekend. I hate when weekends end because that means we are back to our normal work week :-(

Next weekend though is HOLIDAY WORLD!!
We are road tripping with our best friends Brittney and Kurtis. It will be a lot of fun! Im sure there will be tons of pictures to come!

Tough Day at work

So I wrote my nephew last night to see if he wanted to come over and spend the night, he then wrote me back and said "my dad wont let me come stay the night, so I cant stay over"

needless to say it broke my heart. i cried most of the day at work, its even tough for me to write this right now.

I have 2 nieces and 2 nephews. I love them all to death. Luckily I have a really good relationship with all the mothers. Alisha being one of my best friends. But having a 10 almost 11 year old boy email me and tell me that he is not allowed to come over to my house because of a 30 something ADULTS issues with me is ridiculous.

Braylon (almost 2), Kyle (almost 11), Zoe (almost 8) and Kayla (almost 3)...

Onto other news, Ron and I are going to make up our date night from last weekend that we couldnt go on, so we skipped our second date night ever. But financially we decided that it was better off to pay bills then go on a date. lol.

We also have 9 more days until our Holiday World trip with Brittney and Kurtis! We are going to go camping and visit Holiday World on Saturday! It will be an amazing trip! Its like a weekend get a way with my two best friends. Cant get much better than that!

TV lunch hour...

So I went home on lunch to watch After the Final Rose from the Bachlorette....needless to say I have never really watched the final rose or really had any interest in this show, but I really wanted to see if Ali ended up happy or not. Which turned into a tearful lunch hour.

Seems like every time I watch those shows I end up wanting to puke about how they talk about finding the one and what not, but this time watching it I was like know I know what they are talking about, yeah they have a TV romance, and who knows if its real, but I could see where they were coming from.

I don't know how I deserve to be with Ron, to have finally found the one that I want to be with for the rest of my life. But he's so sweet, kind, caring and unbelievable. I laugh so hard when I go home from work just because of him I couldn't be more happy than I am right now. I fall more in love with him everyday....and when Ali was describing how she felt about Roberto...I started to cry because I found everything that she said she had found. I found the one that I want to be with for the rest of my life and I cant wait to see what our life has in store for us!

Anyway....

The air conditioning guy is at our house currently as we speak, so we don't have any air at our house. Preferably we would love to go somewhere and not be at home, but we are still waiting on the Eastway Court check for our damage deposit so our funds are a little low. Cheap dinner out sounds amazing! We can do that! We deserve it!

Wow in need of updating!!

Lets see....Wednesday was the last time I wrote on this thing....

So Thursday Ron and I enjoyed the pool for a while, then we went to Dinner with Ada since Craig didnt show up to eat dinner with her.

Friday Ron had to work again till 9pm, so I stayed at home and re-organized the bedroom, surprised Ron when he got home from work with it.

Saturday-Brittney came over and swam and we decided it was way too cold to be swimming in the pool, so we decided to enjoy a movie in the theater instead. Needless to say we got kicked out for "Acting a fool" We were confused with other little kids in the clubhouse, and she didnt even ask me. Ron and I had some bananas that night and played some card games.

Sunday-Ron worked and I enjoyed the pool! Then we had meatloaf last night and just watched some movies.

Pretty exciting weekend...NOT!!

Late Work Night....

So Ron switches with Jessie tonight and had to work 3-9. Part time patty I know! So I just stayed at home washed our sheets and relaxed. Ron was shocked that I washed my "blankies" too. Those things havent been washed since, well I cant remember! When I went to sleep they were no where near as comfortable as the night before :-( Ill get over it!

I dont like being at home alone while Ron works till 9. I have to do it all over again tomorrow. Ugg.....good thing though there is only one more day till my surprise date night with my handsome man!!

Dinner Night with Brittney

The Cutest Bottle of Wine ever...Ron said we are going to get all of them and put our lucky ducks in a row :-)

Our First Ever Dinner Guest

Ron was mad that I was taking so many pictures

Ron Cleaning up from dessert



So tonight we had our first ever dinner guest over to swim and enjoy a nice dinner together. Brittney came over and swam with us and enjoyed some wine at the pool. I made fried pork chops, mashed potatoes, and gravy (my first shot at gravy wasnt half bad I must say) We all enjoyed a lot of laughter and had a really nice time. Ron and I enjoy entertaining our friends thats one of the many things we have in common.

The video on the other hand was a total funny moment courtesy of my lovely boyfriend. We have a bar in our kitchen and Ron and I the other day were acting like we were going down stairs. Childish I know, well so tonight he wanted me to show Brittney my version of the stairs. He said I look like a chicken...so I got him to do the esclator and got him on camera....Ron sweetie you will NEVER live this down!

Date night...Casino...NO AC!!!

No AC...time for a photo shoot!!

Rons Favorite picture from the night...

My tan sexy man!!

Friday Night Date night attempt one: It was our first date night of one every week. I surprised Ron and took the day off...I had planned that we would haev gone to the zoo and have a picnic, but I would take off the day that was the hottest of the year! Therefore, the zoo was out of the question. So we went to the Indiana State Museum, which for the money I guess was a good deal, but the museum was kinda a let down. We then ended up at Scottys Brewhouse for lunch which was good, then we came home and Alisha, Justin and the kids came to visit, which is always nice, then Ron went to bed with a terrible headache at 8pm. I watched some TV and fell asleep on the couch. In my mind, date night attempt #1, was not so successful. It was still fun though, next week is Rons week, hes already saying how its going to top mine.....we will see!

So we went to Anderson tonight to look at Old Navy for shorts for Ron, only to discover that there isnt any shorts that he likes. After going to Khols and discovering that he is in love with old man shorts that look like hes going to hit the golf course with a pair of depends, we decided to go to the casino just to see what they had to offer.

We go in and get Ron a players card, they gave him $5 free dollars, that had to be activated by using a $1. So we put the dollar in the machine, and come out with $6....so we decide to head over to the fish game, where we put the $6 in.....only to sit there for about 5 min and walked away with $80! We tried to figure out what we were going to do with the money, then we decided that we would go upstairs and eat the buffet where they had crab legs and steak and prime rib on the menu! We pigged out!! We were on such a high from doing all of that we were so excited to come home and drink some dirty bananas and watch some movies....until.....

We got home and found our apartment to be extremely hot! Our thermostat said that it was 85 in our house! We knew we left with the air being at 73....only because it felt a little hot when we were getting ready. So we called the emergency maintenance guy to come out and fix it, well little did we know he lives right next door. So he comes over and looks at it and comes to the conclusion that our compressor is out on our air conditioner. and that someone would be out tonight to fix it. Needless to say its midnight and no one is here, nor were they ever coming. They dont fix air conditioners at night so we have to sit in a 80 degree apartment all night....so much for our good night!

Plus Friday....Ron and I surprised Mom and David with balloons for their anniversary while they were leaving Olive Garden for lunch. Luckily someone fell right next to where they were sitting or else we probably would have missed them. I love when our little family can share fun days like that. The four of us are so close, its soo nice. Happy Anniversary Parental Units! We love you!

Dinner with the Mothership and Bonus Dad....

Tonight we took moms hot and cold bag back that we had used when we moved all of our food out of the old apartment. She was making one of my favorite things ever, bacon cheeseburger pie. We didn't intend on eating there, but she of course pulled my chain to stay.

They will be celebrating their one year wedding anniversary tomorrow, Im so happy of that too. I thought the day would never come that they would get married. But they did and Im so happy that I got the chance to be the official photographer that day. I love them both so much, and so does Ron, thats why hes the preferred child. Shocked, Im not ;-)

We also watched some Big Brother tonight, thats something that I am obsessed with during the summer TV season. Ron has gotten into it, but the girl that he thought was cute in the house got voted out tonight, so sad. lol.

I also finished our paris wall. the only thing that is missing are our pictures hanging up on the walls of the apartment, we have to get with Brittney and get this done, we dont have any pictures of us around the house and that needs to change. I have some that I can print off and put up and I need to do that as well this weekend.

Tomorrow is my first planned date night with Ron. Well actually its a date day. We are planning on going to the zoo and seeing the cheetahs. We are both really excited about it and I cant wait to post some pictures.

Wednesday, July 21, 2010

All Moved in...

Well we did it. We are all moved in and unpacked...well for the most part unpacked in our new home. Rons version of unpacking means moving boxes that need to be unpacked out of sight...but they still need to be unpacked. lol.

I will post pictures tonight, we finally got our internet working and Ron got his computer working finally! Now just onto the car!! haha!

We will get there someday right??

Friday, July 16, 2010

WE HAVE KEYS!!!

We now have the keys for our apartment! Im so excited! It will be a busy day today moving everything in, but tonight it will be so worth it to just be able to be there together for the first time! Pictures and stuff to come tomorrow....

Thursday, July 15, 2010

Last Day

Tonight is the last night in our Apartment before we move tomorrow....we are both really excited. We have everything packed up and ready to go! The only thing that is left is to pack the bathroom essentials and throw out some trash :-) and get the stuff out of the attic...

We talked last night and decided that we are each week going to have a date night. The way we decided whos week it is, is who ever gets paid that week gets to plan date night. For example, we are starting the week of the 23rd. Thats my week to get paid so I have to plan date night some night that following week...so I need to start thinking! This is a big deal and I want to make sure that the first date is good so that Ron has at least something to top! haha...

We move tomorrow! I know it will be be a busy day, I wish I could take off work but I cant considering 2 people are already off and everyone around here is making a big deal out of it. So hopefully Ron and his friends can handle it! I know they can!

Wednesday, July 14, 2010

Decor Shopping...

I have been trying to get cute ideas on how to decorate our new apartment, luckily we have some friends that both really like to decorate, one being an interior designer who we could get to help :-) but the more I keep looking the more my wish list grows...

I don't think Ron would appreciate the list right now :-)

Tuesday, July 13, 2010

2 More Days.....

Counting down the days until we can move!! We are basically all packed, all that is left is the kitchen and some of the bathroom supplies (shower stuff) Tonight Im going to finish up the back room, throwing stuff out and getting it all organized and then pack up shoes, as well as finish the bathroom stuff....I actually need to go through shoes, Ron said that most of the shoes aren't making the move, well I have a bigger closet now so they could possibly go :-) haha. We will see...

Crazy Weekend...

This weekend was very busy! Friday night Ron had to work so I went shopping with Alisha to find her a new bathing suit. We enjoyed our time together. Then we met Ron for some Taco Bell after he got off work.

Saturday we got up early and went and got paint to re-paint the living room and bedroom. Then that night I had the Tom Petty Concert and had a lot of fun. Ron ended up going to hang out with his friend Ben.

Sunday I had a viewing for a friend at work and a college classmate, whos twin brother passed Thursday morning. Ron went and did some laundry and packed some stuff up from his brothers.

So Ron made his list for his 10 things he is thankful for as well....Ive been waiting for him to email me with these, but he hasn't been able to considering hes the only one at work this morning until 1pm. Below is Rons list:

My List of things I'm thankful for. (In no particular order)

10. Shane Tatom: Without this man in my life I don't know where I would be. He gave me my first "real" job, he paid for my schooling, he bought me a car, he basically saved my life! He made me into the man I am toady. This man is my father....

9. My Job: With FedEx being one of the top 25 companies in the world to work, I'm very fortunate to have such a great job with great benefits that me and my future family will be able to benefit from. With so many people out of work in the US its nice just to say that I have a job. Plus thanks to FedEx Ive found the girl of my dreams!

8. My Grandparents: When my mother and father decided that having a son to take care of didn't sound like anything they wanted to take part of my grandparents stepped in and raised me! Without them I cant even imagine where I would be.......My grandmother showed me how to respect women while my grandfather showed me the meaning of a family and what it means to take care of one.

7. My Brother: My brother is the one person in this that I know always has my back. He is my little brother, but a few times in my life he has taken care of me. I love my brother more than life its self there is nothing that I wouldn't do for him.

6. My health: I've had so many bumps in the past, but overall I can say I feel great! I can run all day! That's something that Im really thankful for and take for granted...I cant imagine what it would be like to be confined to a bed or too sick to eat.

5. Whitney Crowder: AKA the love of my life! Now I know all of the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls brought me here. Whitney made me feel that it is ok to love again! This is a love that Ive never felt before. Just in a short three months I can honestly say that this is the girl that I want to spend the rest of my life with! I want her to be my wife, the mother to my children, the women that I want by my side everyday! I cant imagine my life without her! She is the light of my life and the girl of my dreams! The feeling that I get from her when she calls me baby is like nothing Ive ever felt before! My one true love.

4. X-Box Live: As funny as it may sound live has brought a few really good friend in my life....The Powell family...over the past few years I've gotten to know them and think of them as my family! We've done a lot of fun things together. Plus it's a great way for me to stay connected to my friends in NC and other parts of the US. Its just a good time.

3. My Friends: Over the years Ive lost some friends and gained some new ones, but I have a few core friends who have always been by my side and I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world! I couldn't get through my day without talking to as least one of my friends. Plus Im so lucky to be in love with my best friend!

2. My freedom: Its something that we don't think about on a daily basis, without it we wouldn't be able to live our lives the way we want to!

1. The fact that I can count on both hands the ones that I love!

10 Things...

I was challenged at work today to make a list of ten things I'm thankful for....I have never thought of making one of these...so this should be interesting...

  1. Having a Job: My job is pretty easy and laid back and sometimes fun. I know most people don't have a job, and I'm thankful that I have one that is flexible when needed, challenging and fun.
  2. Having great friends: I would have to say that I have some amazing friends. They listen when I need to vent and are there through thick and thin. Yeah we may have had our arguments and fights, but all in all we will always be there for each other.
  3. Wonderful Family: My family is pretty amazing. We always do stuff together and have fun little nights together. Mom & David especially. They are always inviting me and Ron over for dinner and to do fun stuff with. Some people don't have family like that, and Im glad that Ron & I have family to lean on when needed.
  4. Being an Aunt: Kyle, Zoe, Kayla and Braylon are my world. I love to spoil them and have them over for sleepovers and take them to fun places and just to hear them laugh makes my day. Im fortunate to have such good nieces and nephews♥
  5. Food and Shelter: with moving soon Ron and I have a pretty amazing apartment now, but in a week it will get even better. I'm thankful that I'm not out living on the street and not knowing when I was going to eat again.
  6. Being a Little Sister: Growing up I always wanted a little sister to play with. Instead I was granted with an older brother and later in life 3 step brothers and a step sister. I really only talk with one of my step-siblings, which is Justin, and used to talk to Stephen until a lot of family drama happened (see next point...) but Austin I have remained close with through ups and downs in his life the same with Justin. I know they would both be there for me if anything ever went wrong.
  7. Living Drama Free: I made a promise to myself a couple months ago that I was going to live my life for me, not to make anyone else happy. I was going to start standing up for myself and knock out all dramatized people out of my life. Did I hurt some peoples feelings? Yes, but after that I felt a lot better after it was all done and over with....
  8. My Sister in Law: Alisha has become one of my best friends. We talk just about everyday about stupid girl stuff, kids, and boy problems. But she is always a good shoulder to lean on when I need support or just someone to vent to. I have been blessed with an amazing sister in law!
  9. Being Healthy: aside from allergies, I am a pretty healthy woman. Im going to knock on wood and end there. :-)
  10. My boyfriend: Without Ron I wouldn't have made all these changes in my life. I'm changing for the better and I'm enjoying it. I'm so ready to see what our future holds for us, start a family and grow old with each other. I can honestly say I have found my one true love and hes not ever getting away from me.
Hopefully sometime I can get Ron to write his out so I can type his responses on here as well.

So I had to sleep on the couch last night due to the fact that my whole body is COVERED in bites! Ron said he needs to buy me a clip on fan to wear around all day. lol....

Well anyway so we are down to 8 days....the days seem to be going so fast! Tomorrow is one week from the day we take possession! We are soo excited! We have the living room totally done, and I really have to bust butt Saturday evening....considering Ron works tomorrow night, and I have the Tom Petty concert this weekend.

July 4th Weekend♥

Our Serious Look....

Me and Madre...

Mom and Ron...

Me and my handsome boyfriend....

The Parental Units, acting like children...


We had a very busy and exciting weekend! Friday Ron had to work until 9 so I hung out with a friend from college to catch up and then ran some errands. Saturday we woke (well I woke up) at 9:30 went and paid some bills and finally got the paper we were waiting on to move into the new apartment. Luckily when I went into the office, the Owner was in there and I cornered her to fill out the paper work, well she was under a time crunch so the lady that I always deal with, Wanda, filled out the paperwork! I went running home and told Ron to get ready that we were going to Bluestone! He was excited! So we turned in our paper and decided on the way there that we were going to move a week early! So instead of moving on the 23rd we are moving on the 16th!

Then Saturday night we went over to Mom and Davids to watch some of the drunken porch peoples fireworks and have a fire...well there was this cute little stray cat that Mazie wanted everything in the world to do with, well I made the mistake of picking up the cat and brought it into the yard. Mazie played with him and he ended up spending hte night on the porch. We named him Thackery Binx from the movie Hocus Pocus....he stayed around all day on Saturday and sunday....

Sunday we spent the day at Mom and Davids house, ate hamburgers, "Aggs" or Eggs as normal people would say it, french fries, and fruit, then we rode in the deuce to Greenfield Fireworks. David taught me how to drive the deuce so now I guess I can say that Ive driven a HUGE army vehicle! YIKES! It was fun though!!

Ready for an exciting weekend♥

So I have been deleting pictures on my camera for the weekend festivities! Our friend Brittney has agreed to take some pictures of us downtown this weekend. Which will be a lot of fun, but when taking pictures off my camera I found some shots from Chicago that we took when we went there a month ago to see Topher and Fishbowl....

We were at Millennium Park....

On the swings at Navy Pier...

We didnt take very many pictures while in Chicago, but we will be back Im sure!

Ron is currently at his starbucks meeting with his District Manager and his Center Manager. Hopefully it is good news! What kills me is that its right across the street and I keep catching myself looking over there to see if hes coming out, even though I cant see that far :-)

Im excited to post pictures of the weekend on the next post! Im sure there will be lots of pictures to share!

The Crazies....


Last night Kurtis came over and watched a stupid movie called The Crazies.... the movie was about this town that all had this epidemic, and it had 48 hours to basically kill you. The movie was typical scary movie but what made it ok to watch was that Kurtis and Ron were cracking up at the parts instead of being scared. I made some "crack" dip and we enjoyed the movie.
